Outward Bound Canada

Since 1969, Outward Bound Canada has inspired thousands of young people to discover their true potential and contribute to a better, bolder, more compassionate and resilient society. We provide challenging adventures in the outdoors that develop self-respect, awareness of others, interpersonal skills, and a sense of accomplishment. From canoeing in Northern Ontario, hiking in the Rocky Mountains or even a Toronto urban experience, we offer a wide variety of outdoor expeditions across the country. Our youth courses begin at age 12, and range from five to 32 days in length. You can gain a high school credit, work towards your Duke of Edinburgh’s award, and explore everything from mountains to ocean, rivers to forest. By joining one of our outdoor adventures, you’ll explore Canada’s natural environment, develop invaluable skills for life, and tap in to your own unique potential. Note: Financial assistance available to those eligible.
